A blogger? What is that? Isn't that just a writer that doesn't believe in themselves enough to call themselves a writer? I'm a writer. My outlets have always been private. I had a diary when I was growing up. Then those diaries became journals. Then I created a blog but didn't tell anyone else that way it was still just as secret. Then one day I decided "Why not?" What's the point in writing and pouring yourself into something if you don't get to share it with anyone else? There's no reason why I couldn't do it. I was just scared. I was scared that people wouldn't like what I had to say. I was scared people wouldn't think that anything I said was worth their time. I was scared that I had silently built myself up all of these years when really, I wasn't a good writer at all. I realize that I'm no Shakespeare; I can't scare you like Stephen King, and I can't make you fall in love like Nicholas Sparks, but what I can do, is relate to you. I have experiences that many have had. I have dreams just like everyone else, and I love the fact that I'm able to just sit here and pour my heart out for everyone without really knowing whose reading it.
The point of this jumbled post is that I needed to tell myself that I am a writer. A lot of people have finally been able to see me as such and because of that I've had several people tell me to pursue it as something more than just a hobby. My prayer and what I'd ask you to pray for as well, is that when I start writing all of these jumbled thoughts, ideas and characters down is that a story will come to life.
I'm going to continue blogging about anything and everything in the meantime and I'm sure there will be several posts about how the book is coming. I'll share my struggles and frustrations and also my small accomplishments as I start this great new adventure.
Thanks for the support and love :)
